10.3 SPI Bus
10.3.1 The SPI Protocol
A 4-channel instrument is required for full support of the SPI protocol.
The Serial Peripheral Interface SPI is used for communication with slow peripheral devi-
ces, in particular, for transmission of data streams.
Main characteristics of SPI are:
Master-slave communication
No device addressing; The slave is accessed by a chip select, or slave select line.
No acknowledgement mechanism to confirm receipt of data
Duplex capability
Most SPI buses have four lines, two data and two control lines:
Clock line to all slaves (SCLK)
Slave Select or Chip Select line (SS or CS)
Master data output, slave data input (MOSI or SDI)
Master data input, slave data output (MISO or SDO)
When the master generates a clock and selects a slave device, data may be transferred
in either or both directions simultaneously.

The data bits of a message are grouped by following criteria:
A word contains a number of successive bits. The word length is defined in the pro-
tocol configuration.
A frame contains a number of successive words, at least one word.
